1959Siheyuan, a Turnaround

Chapter 23 I Just Want Cash

This time, Li Weiguo didn't need to ask, Zhao Daqiang started the introduction himself.

"A-grade liquor tickets cost one yuan each, and you can buy Maotai. For Xifeng, Wuliangye, Dukang, Lianhuabai, etc., you only need to use B-grade liquor tickets, which cost fifty cents each. In addition, loose liquor costs ten cents each."

"Which one do you want?"

As for the loose liquor, Li Weiguo simply ignored it. After all, he was a rich man now, so of course he wanted to drink good wine!

"Twenty Class A wine tickets, twenty Class B wine tickets."

"Wow! You're great, little brother! You're quite capable! Do you want anything else?"

Zhao Daqiang was in high spirits at this moment. It was the first time he saw someone asking for forty drink tickets at once.

"Give me some cigarette tickets, and tell me how to sell them?"

"A-grade cigarette coupons are 20 cents, and B-grade cigarette coupons are 10 cents. How much do you want?"

"Twenty of the same."

Li Weiguo said it without thinking.

He also smoked in his previous life and was an old smoker. Now that he has the means, how can he let himself be wronged?

"Twenty Class A wine tickets are 20 yuan, twenty Class B wine tickets are 10 yuan, twenty Class A cigarette tickets are 4 yuan, and twenty Class B cigarette tickets are 2 yuan, a total of 36 yuan."

"Little brother, are you rushing around with money?"

Zhao Daqiang looked at Li Weiguo with a puzzled look. Thirty-six yuan is not a small amount of money, and most people would not be willing to spend that much money.

"I really didn't bring it..." Before Li Weiguo could finish his words, Zhao Daqiang started to hit him.

"Are you kidding me?"

Li Weiguo quickly stopped him and whispered in his ear, "Brother Qiang, calm down. Listen to me. I'll trade you 20 kilograms of cornmeal. The best cornmeal!"

He had just thought about it and knew that cornmeal must be more valuable than cornmeal, so twenty kilograms could definitely be exchanged for it.

Zhao Daqiang was stunned when he heard this, and then asked excitedly: "Brother, are you serious? Are you kidding me?"

"To fool people is to be a puppy!"

"In exchange, 20 kilograms of cornmeal. No regrets!"

Zhao Daqiang held Li Weiguo with both hands, as if he was afraid that he would run away.

"Don't worry, I'll never go back on my word!"

After saying that, Li Weiguo walked into the dark corner of the woods with his two salted fishes. He deliberately fiddled with the bushes for a while before taking out a small bag of cornmeal.

When Zhao Daqiang saw that Li Weiguo was really coming over with a small bag, he hurried over to him. The two of them blocked the way with their bodies, then he opened the bag and looked inside.

"Top-quality cornmeal. My dear brother, you keep your word and be fair!"

After saying that, Zhao Daqiang handed the four stacks of bills in his hand to Li Weiguo.

"Twenty of the same, one is not less. If you have good things in the future, don't forget to take care of my business."

At this moment, Zhao Daqiang looked at Li Weiguo as if he were the God of Wealth. He could make at least 20 yuan by reselling the 10 kilograms of cornmeal in front of him.

"Anything is fine? Sweet potatoes, potatoes, pumpkins, peanuts, etc."

Li Weiguo asked tentatively as he put the bill into his pocket, actually into the storage space.

"You have all of these? How many are there!!!"

Zhao Daqiang was so excited that his voice changed. He held Li Weiguo's arm tightly and refused to let go.

"How much can you eat? I just want cash!"

Li Weiguo was unusually calm at this time. There were so many crops in his space, and he couldn't eat them all, so he might as well exchange them for money, which would be convenient for him to spend later.

"Little brother, this is a big matter. Please wait a moment. I'll be back soon!"

Zhao Daqiang was very excited after hearing this. This was a big business with a lot of money. He could live for a year on this deal.

Just as he was about to leave, Li Weiguo stopped him and gave him some instructions.

"Brother Qiang, I'm the only one who knows where the things are. There are more than a dozen people in our village guarding the things with weapons. We are not afraid of trouble!"

"Don't worry, little brother. Although this is a black market, we don't do shady business. We all make a living by tinkering with things, and it's not easy for anyone. The black market boss is a decent person, so you can rest assured!"

After saying this, Zhao Daqiang picked up the small bag of cornmeal and hurried off to find someone.

The other party came very quickly. Li Weiguo didn't have to wait long before Zhao Daqiang came over with a burly man.

In fact, anyone with a discerning eye could see how good the quality of Li Weiguo's bag of cornmeal was. These days, grain is more valuable than anything else, and whoever has grain is the boss.

If the black market boss is not stupid, he will not miss this opportunity.

The man was dressed like everyone else, with his head wrapped in a cloth, leaving only his two eyes exposed.

"Little brother, I heard you have potatoes and sweet potatoes to sell?"

"It's true. I just came here from the South to earn some money to survive."

Li Weiguo is speaking very seriously now. If you make a joke in an occasion like this, you will be beaten.

The other party was right. If they didn't go out of town to make a living, they would have nothing to eat locally!

"It's a pity that today, I only have 2000 yuan in my hand. What do you think..."

The black market boss really regretted not having so much cash in his hand today. The other party sounded quite arrogant, so he must have a lot of good things in his hand.

"Let's talk about the price first. If it's suitable, I'll sell it to you. If it's not suitable, we'll take it back!"

"I only want potatoes and sweet potatoes. How about 50 cents a pound?"

Having been in the black market for a long time, I understand the market demand best.

Food is not easy to get, but people can buy potatoes and sweet potatoes and use them as food, and they can be stored for a long time.

Fifty cents? Not low!

"Pumpkin, don't you want peanuts? Peanuts last longer!"

"Little brother, you are joking. What everyone lacks now is food. Pumpkins are okay, but there are no potatoes. Sweet potatoes are easy to store."

"Okay! I'll go tell the villagers about the same 2000 kilograms, and Brother Qiang will come over with the money to take over later!"

"Good! That's straightforward, little brother!"

Li Weiguo bypassed his second uncle's stall, walked out of the black market, and continued walking forward for another two kilometers before entering the depths of the forest.

He found a relatively open place in the woods and trampled everywhere, leaving traces of many people walking around.

He found a large branch and swung it from one end of the forest to the other, creating a path more than half a meter wide for a person.

Seeing that the disguise was almost done, Li Weiguo took out 2000 kilograms of potatoes and 2000 kilograms of sweet potatoes.

Li Weiguo's struggle lasted almost half an hour before he finally walked out of the woods.

Zhao Daqiang and the black market boss had already been standing at the entrance of the black market waiting for Li Weiguo.

"Brother Qiang, go over and check the goods. Don't worry, there will only be two of us at the transaction site."

Li Weiguo saw Zhao Daqiang glance at the black market boss, and then follow him into the woods.

When he arrived at the place where potatoes and sweet potatoes were stored, Zhao Daqiang turned on the flashlight, looked at the quality of the potatoes and sweet potatoes, and then estimated the weight.

Finally, he took out the cash he had prepared with satisfaction: "There is no problem with the goods, here is 2000 yuan, little brother, you are quick and efficient, and the goods are also good, please take care of my business in the future!"

"Easy to say! Easy to say!"

Li Weiguo took the 2000 yuan and counted it under the flashlight, and only put it into his pocket after confirming that it was correct. (In fact, he put it into the storage space).
